Reasons for choosing Army ROTC Baystate Battalion:
I knew I wanted to join ROTC once I entered college, and after learning I would attend Holy Cross I researched the Bay State Battalion and enrolled in the program. I have been very impressed with the people and training of the program thus far.

Present job title and employer:
I am a Political Science major but am working this summer as a lifeguard. I am taking Arabic as a language and hope to turn it into a minor, which I foresee will be very useful in future career fields.

Describe how Army ROTC prepared you for facing real-world challenges in the workplace or graduate school.
ROTC is a significant time commitment and has helped develop my time-managements skills. As a training course for the Army, the leadership and discipline values taught are universal traits that will assist me in any future endeavors.
